Name:
You can enter any name. This name is displayed in the Type list box of the basic parameters for slab element design if the Description box is empty. This way, you can enter a short name for the catalog and a detailed description for the design.
Description:
You can enter any name. This name is displayed in the Type list box of the basic parameters for slab element design.
Max. panel length:
[mm] Maximum value for the panel length. If this value is exceeded during the design process, the program will issue a message.
Min. slab thickness:
[mm] Minimum value of slab thickness that is permitted for the type.
Longitudinal section / End face section:
Selection box for the joint section catalog. In the design process, these sections are applied to both longitudinal sides of panels of standard width and to a longitudinal side and to both end faces of fitted panels. All the edges to which you assign the longitudinal section are given the Smooth edge or Stop position attribute.
To assign this attribute to a panel edge without profiling, you need to define a "smooth" section in the joint section catalog and assign it here.
You can define how sections are displayed and labeled in the configurations.
'Ball data' tab
Ball diameter:
[mm] Diameter of the balls used for the relevant panel type.
Distance of center of ball to top bar in lower reinforcement:
[mm] The program calculates the height of the ball from the vertical distance between the ball’s center and the top level of the top bar of the bottom reinforcement, the concrete cover entered in the design process and the diameters determined automatically for the bottom reinforcement. The lattice girders have no effect on the height of the balls.
Min. distance of ball to element edges and openings:
[mm] Minimum distance of the ball to element edges and openings. If this minimum distance cannot be met, no ball is created.
Fixture for production:
You can assign a symbol fixture from the fixture catalog to the ball. You need to make this assignment if you wish to transfer the balls to production. Select a fixture in the list box.
'Panel widths' tab
Dimensions in transverse direction
You can define the width of the standard panel (entire panel) or individual limits for the width of fitted panels in a table. For fitted panels, you can also specify whether you are dealing with the right part or the left part of a standard panel.
Specify how the girders and balls are distributed in the transverse direction of the panel for each width range. Enter a pattern with edge offset and spacing between the girder axes (e.g. 300,600,600 = 300mm edge offset, then 600mm twice) or ball centers (e.g. 125,350,250,350,250 = 125mm edge offset, then 300mm, then 250mm, then 350mm, then 250mm). To make sure that distribution always starts from the joint, you need to enter negative values for all offsets when left part is selected.
If the minimum value for the panel width cannot be met, the program will create an invalid element, two fitted panels or a strip made of in-situ concrete (depending on your settings).
to insert a new entry in front of the selected entry in the table.
to add an entry to the end of the table.
to delete the entry selected in the table.Dimensions in longitudinal direction
Specify how the balls are distributed in the longitudinal direction of the panel. Enter a pattern with edge offset and spacing between the ball centers (e.g. 250*100 = 250mm up to 100 times, the first 250mm are used for the edge offset).
'->Fact.' tab
Assignment of the individual entries to the relevant factories.
The selected entry is applicable to the selected factories. If no factory is selected, the entry is valid for all the factories.
